Raymond Cruz Arrested in Silver Lake Dispute, Accused of Spraying Neighbor With Hose

The Los Angeles City Attorney is reviewing the case, with Cruz due in court on Oct. 1.

Overview

  • LAPD officers responded late Monday morning to a neighborhood dispute in Silver Lake and detained Cruz, who was booked and held for about five hours.
  • Online booking records show he was released on his own recognizance and is scheduled to appear in court on Oct. 1.
  • Police told People that Cruz allegedly sprayed water at a woman during the confrontation, with reports indicating a minor was among those involved.
  • Cruz’s representative says the encounter began as a parking dispute while he was washing his car and denies any intentional spraying, calling the allegation baseless.
  • No formal misdemeanor charges have been filed as the matter is under review by the Los Angeles City Attorney, which often resolves low-level cases administratively.
